Getty Images, "Jimmy Kimmel Live"/NBC, YouTube Jimmy Kimmel used a wacky shirt to demonstrate what it may be like for Republican voters who are feeling buyer's remorse over Donald Trump.

In a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, 52% of Republican voters say they wish another candidate had been chosen for the Republican presidential campaign. To illustrate what that may feel like, Kimmel compared Trump's nomination to buying a particularly over-the-top shirt.

"You look around, you see all these shirts — plain patterns, regular shirts, maybe a shirt with pinstripes — they look okay, but not exciting," the host said on Tuesday's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" "But then, tucked in the middle of all the plain shirts, you see this totally awesome shirt. It's bold, it's different, it doesn't play by the other shirts' rules. You think about what a killer you'd feel like going out with this shirt on, so you buy it."

Likewise, Trump's brazen comments, big ideas, and political-outsider status excited a great deal of voters, who seemed disenchanted with the status quo. But there comes a point when one realizes that different doesn't always mean better.

"And then you get home and you go into your closet or wherever, and you try the shirt on, and you look at yourself in the mirror," Kimmel continued. "And then, your wife walks in and says..."

The host's wife, Molly McNearney (who's also the show's co-head writer), then appeared onstage and said, "What the hell are you wearing?"

This is where Kimmel's analogy takes a dark turn.

"And then you realize you look like a tool with a big capital T," Kimmel said. "But fortunately, the store you bought from has a great return policy. Oh wait, no it doesn't, this is the shirt you're stuck with for four years."
